Whether you want to provide rehabilitation care, emergency support, or therapeutic intervention, our national recognized faculty will prepare you for a fulfilling career as an athletic trainer (AT).

The first year of the program offers both academics and clinical experiences in-person. The second year of the program offers academics fully online and clinical education in-person.
The NAU AT Program is uniquely positioned to support students through smaller cohorts of 20-30 students that allow for meaningful one-on-one time with faculty members. The program’s student-centered curriculum prepares students to sit for the Board of Certification (BOC) examination to become a Certified Athletic Training and boasts high pass-rates.
